Ha Ha! Emergency+4! I had forgotten! I'm currently enjoying the animated Trek on DVD. Highly recommended.
Now the one thing missing here is "Goober & the Ghostchasers". It featured a blue dog who would turn invisible when frightened by ghosts, and some of the Partridge kids were regulars. Sort of a "Scooby" knock-off, but for some reason I loved it. And then there's the Gilligan's Island cartoon, but the less said about that, the better...

Thanks Mooncity, this was a fun one to post. I think my favorite that I had forgotten was the amazing Chan and the Chan clan. The tune is great, and I used to love the changing van.

You forgot the best cartoon ever made:
JONNY QUEST!
He had it all.
He got to follow his super-scientist dad around the world in their private lear jet.
He had a former CIA spook for a bodyguard.
He had his own personal Indian slave/friend.
He had an annoying hybrid bulldog/raccoon that was great at sniffing out bad guys.
AND, he never went to school!
What boy did not want to be Jonny Quest?!?

The fact that I remember none of these cartoons is indicative of the fact that alcohol HAS killed all my painful memories.

The fact that I remember none of these cartoons is indicative of the fact that this list is geared to a narrow age range, of which I am not a part. I do remember Johynny Quest! But Jellio was probably not born yet when it was on air.
